Lack of connection

How long will it take for a mother to know how to take care of her own baby ? My baby 25 days old and I’m under confinement care by my confinement nanny … My nanny , mother in law & helper are taking turns to care for her. Everyone kept telling me they want me to focus on myself first. Im grateful to my family to come in to care for her . But it’s almost close to her1 month and i barely know how to take care of her when the nanny goes . I feel like I don’t bond much with her and she prefers the bottle over my chest. I end up have to exclusively pump only and combine feed her as I’m also under supply. My husband and I have tried to care for her for just 3 hours and we can barely manage as she starts to cry like crazy . I think she can sense we barely can care for her.. We’re trying to do more hands on but sometimes I just feel like I shouldn’t be near her cause I think she can sense my anxiety Any advise … #FTM #pumping #help1sttimemom
